Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Follow live coverage from day six at Wimbledon where Andy Murray, Serena Williams, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal all in action.

The Scot, who returned to SW19 with a bang in the men's doubles on Thursday, finally gets his mixed doubles campaign underway alongside 23-time Grand Slam champion Williams after being made to wait by teenage sensation Cori Gauff on Friday evening. Murray was also in men's doubles action alongside Pierre-Hugues Herbert earlier in the day. Elsewhere eight-time champ Federer continued his march to what he hopes will be another All England title while Nadal faced Jo Wilfried Tsonga in the match of the day on Centre Court.

MATCHES TO BE ARRANGED NOT BEFORE 17.30

Andy Murray (GBR) / Serena Williams (USA) or Andreas Mies (GER) / Alexa Guarachi (CHI) 6

Roger Federer is under way in his match against Lucas Pouille. Their tie remains on hold, with things currently tied at 2-2.

Samuel Lovett6 July 2019 16:59

And Joao Sousa has got his match against Dan Evans up and running on Court One. The Briton is looking to join Johanna Konta in making it to the second week of Wimbledon.

Samuel Lovett6 July 2019 17:00

Sousa 0-1 Evans*

The best start possible for Evans who breaks his opponent at the first time of asking. Encouraging stuff from the Briton.

Samuel Lovett6 July 2019 17:04

*Sousa 0-2 Evans

Evans is pushing for another break here on Court One as this game goes to its third deuce. 

The Briton shows his speed and class with a reaching forehand sweep that zips past Sousa and lands to his right. Advantage Evans.

Samuel Lovett6 July 2019 17:12

Pouille 4-4 Federer*

No break points so far, with both players serving with ease. 

Pouille is a decent player on grass, and in reality represents Federer's first big test of the tournament. 

Kieran Jackson6 July 2019 17:13

*Sousa 0-2 Evans

Evans can't capitalise and we're back to deuce.

Samuel Lovett6 July 2019 17:13

*Sousa 0-2 Evans

A third break point for Evans as both men huff and puff to get this game wrapped up. But, alas, it's not to be as the Briton once again squanders the opportunity with an unforced error.

Samuel Lovett6 July 2019 17:15

Sousa 2-3 Evans*

A hold apiece, as Sousa stays within a game. 

Kieran Jackson6 July 2019 17:26

Vintage Rafa...

Kieran Jackson6 July 2019 17:27

*Pouille 5-6 Federer

This one looks to be heading for a tiebreak, as Pouille threatens to break Federer. He has a break point, but can't convert, and Roger escapes with the game - he's guaranteed himself a tiebreak.
